COCONUT TAPIOCA PUDDING



Coconut Tapioca Pudding image

I have always loved tapioca pudding and coconut, so this dish is perfect for me! One time, for a 'Southeast Asian Cuisine Night,' I served this as dessert alongside pho, spring rolls, and steamed dumplings. For a Southeast Asian touch, top the pudding with chopped mango or chopped peanuts.

Categories     Dessert

Time 3h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup/4 ounces tapioca (seed or Asian pearl tapioca)
3 cups water (divided)
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 (13.5 ounces) can coconut milk (or "lite" coconut milk)
Garnish: table syrup (or maple syrup to serve)
Optional: 1 fresh mango (sliced)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • In a medium bowl, cover tapioca with 1 cup water.
  • Let soak for 15 to 20 minutes or until the granules expand slightly. Avoid over-soaking or the tapioca will not be able to hold its shape.
  • Pour off excess water.
  • In a pot with a lid, combine tapioca, salt, and the remaining 2 cups water. Bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Stir occasionally, adding a little more water if necessary to prevent tapioca from bubbling and "spitting."
  • When the tapioca turns soft and a little gooey, turn off the heat and place the lid on tight. Let it sit at least 10 minutes. The residual heat inside the tapioca will finish turning all of the seeds soft and translucent.
  • Remove the lid and allow the tapioca to cool on the stovetop.
  • Cover it again and refrigerate until it's cold; it will thicken and gel together.
  • To serve, scoop about 1/4 cup or more of the cold tapioca per person and place in serving glasses or bowls.
  • Pour 1/4 to 1/3 cup coconut milk over each portion and stir to mix. This pudding should be on the runny side and you will have to stir it well to distribute the tapioca.
  • Add a little syrup to each portion (about 1 tablespoon or to taste). Each person can add more according to their preferred sweetness.
  • Add slices of fresh mango or any tropical fresh fruit, if desired.

Tips for Making the Best Tapioca Pudding with Tender Coconut:

- Use high-quality coconut milk: Fresh coconut milk is best, but you can also use canned coconut milk. If using canned, be sure to use full-fat coconut milk for the richest flavor. - Soak the tapioca pearls before cooking: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming too chewy. - Cook the tapioca pearls in plenty of water: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking together. - Add the sugar and salt gradually: This will help prevent the pudding from becoming too sweet or salty. - Stir the pudding constantly while cooking: This will help prevent the pudding from scorching. - Let the pudding cool slightly before serving: This will allow it to thicken up and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

Tapioca pudding with tender coconut is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover coconut milk and tapioca pearls, and it can be enjoyed hot or cold.
